Heat index taking S.A. to triple digits

San Antonio is in the middle of what could be an almost 11-day streak of triple digit weather.

Since July 24, the city has hit at least 100 degrees every day except for Saturday, which had a high of 95, according to the National Weather Service. Triple-digit heat is expected every day through at least Saturday.

Tuesday's high is forecasted to be 101 degrees, although the heat index could make it feel like 104 or 105, the weather service said. The highs through Saturday are expected to be 100 or 101 degrees.

Forecaster Aaron Treadway said for the second day in a row, the low temperature has not dropped below 80 degrees.

“It's the typical summer time pattern we have a high pressure sitting over West Texas which is pretty much squashing us for any chances of rain,” he said.

According to MedicineNet, here's some tips to stay cool:

Wear light-colored cotton clothing.

Eat small meals or snacks containing fruit or low-fat dairy products.

Take frequent showers.

Stay inside if the heat is too unbearable to be outside.

For those who have no air-conditioning at home, plan going to the library or mall during the steaming hours.
